A favorite treat of mine when I was little was Little Debbie's Oatmeal Cream Pies! A while back a friend of mine mentioned she'd found a homemade version of these at a bakery and said they were to die for. I decided I'd better find the recipe! I searched and found one on another cooking blog and let me tell you, it did not dissapoint!

Try them out and let me know what you think!
HA! I remember you always eating these dang things, except i'm sure the homemade version is 1000 times better. These little debbie ones are Dev's favorite thing, I guess i'll have to try and make them!
ReplyDeleteI made them! Steve said it was the best treat I've ever made! Thanks to you! :) My cookies turned out really flat and crumbly though. I musta messed something up but they were delicious! :)
